FALL COMMON ROOM - WEEK 0

[dormheads]

common room.

The common room of the Fall Dorm has soft, dimmer lighting; plush carpet over wood; and several comfortable chairs and sectionals. A few big windows overlook the dormitory area of campus, but there is also a single, cozy bay window on one side.

A television and bluetooth surround-sound are here for Fall students who are more inclined to be tech savvy. In the cabinets under the entertainment stand are an assortment of board games, but the television does have a generic "free tv" app for shows and music.

Above the enormous center fireplace is a moody painting.

On one of the tables is a welcome basket.

specialty room.

Through a door on the first floor, there is an antigravity room. Stepping just a few feet through the doorway will lift everyone up into the air. The seating and most of the rest of the room remains somehow rightfully in place on the floor and will not move. Students, however, can grab pillows and blankets, cups or bowls, or other small items to bring into the air with them.

Please use this as an open post for members of Fall Dorm. You may post top-levels whenever you'd like and go wild. A new post will go up at the start of each week.

[ the head wobbles side to side before a looooong sigh and the head pops off. ta-da! tiny gremlin, fully intact ]

Maybe I'm just a tsukumogami.

[manwol leans back, folding her arms.]

Oh? That would be interesting. I don't normally run into those kinds of spirits.

[alitaba]

Really? What's your specialty then?

[lifeless]

Ghosts usually, and the occasional nature or animal spirit.

[alitaba]

[ she's fascinated ]

That's really cool...... We dealt with a lot of spirit shaped things but none of them were really ghosty.

[im in tears,

Manwol immediately perks up. she looks?? excited?? for some reason???]

How much do you usually get?

[alitaba]

[ i can't believe that worked. futaba, on the other hand, blinks ]

Depends on the demon, really. Sometimes a couple hundred yen, sometimes just a measly 500 yen coin.

[lifeless]

Oh.

[Manwol looks genuinely sad that Futaba is not racking in billions.....]

It's hard to make a living, huh... Dead or alive...

[alitaba]

[ no that's her side hustle of scamming rich people ]

Akira's too nice to negotiate every last yen from people.

[ despite the disgust, there's a clear fondness in her voice. stupid big bro. ]

Though he also has like fifteen jobs so I guess he thinks he doesn't need to.
